2012...here I come!!!

To all family, friends, and amazing fellow bloggers:

2011 has had extreme ups and downs for my sweet little family, but by the grace of God our lives are changing and good things are coming our way! I have many resolutions that I am holding close to my heart.

I will be starting this new year back to school with a good attitude. With the horrific shift in education, I have had a sour attitude in the classroom and around colleagues and that's just NOT okay! I'm excited to continue implementing all the wonderful things I've learned and 'mastered' {or at least I think I've mastered}. Things like The Daily Five, Whole Brain Teaching, and Math Workstations! Seriously, if you have not looked into WBT you MUST! It is such an amazing way to keep students fully engaged throughout the day and REALLY helps your more challenging students stay on task and gives them little time to make a 'poor choice.' Who wouldn't want that in the classroom!

While my husband is away doing what he loves to do {ride dirt bikes} I'm going to get to cleaning this house and prepare for our New Years Day cookout and bonfire with our dearest friends! Wish you could all join me!! :)
